nancy pelosi, speaker of the house in san francisco. when she came into congress her net worth was $3 million. in the 20 years she served in congress after that her net worth had gone up 876% which means if you do it on a compound basis you're averaging a return on your investment every year. having george soros or warren buffett would kill for that kind of return on investment. so a dramatic increase in wealth. i will argue at least part of that, large part of that is connected to her political position. what about a republican? the speaker of the house immediately before her was dennis pastor from illinois. dennis have stirred when he became speaker in the 1990s had a net worth around $300,000. when he left as speaker less than a decade later it was in the millions. it could potentially have been $11 million. he didn't inherit money. he didn't win the lottery. it is a function of leveraging his position in order to enrich himself. those are two individuals but there are others i talk about in the book. i name people from both politica
